Hello. My name is Jeff and I am a children's book author. Some of my early writings are intended for young children, infant to early primary school, and are written in catchy nursery rhyme fashion to keep a child's attention. I am also working on some SciFi/Educational stuff for slightly older children, and recently released "Izayah's Space and Time Machine: Mercury". I have been writing children's books for nearly 20 years, but, have only recently decided to start publishing them. When I originally wrote them, they were intended only to keep my grandkids entertained. They have worked so well, that I want to share with others.

publishing a children's book. |
My early books are catchy nursery rhymes with soft, colorful illustrations that catch and keep a young child's attention. Now, we are working on a series of Science Fiction/Educational books, titled, "Izayah's Space and Time Machine" for slightly older children. The books are intended to pique your child's interest in reading and learning, but, more importantly, help you spend relaxing, quality time together. Whether you just have some spare time in the morning or afternoon, or, you are ready for bed. My books are perfect for the occasion.

About the author: |
A lasting journey: |
Sorry, I am not very good at talking myself up. I am, or have been, a lot of things. A carpenter, a student, a dishwasher and waiter, a sailor, a plumber, a farmer, a car detailer, an engineering apprentice, a slot machine repair technician... You name it, I've probably tried it. I was good at some of them, mediocre at others. The one thing I found I was very good at was being a grandpa. I would invent little games and write books for my grandkids and it really made a difference in their development. Now, I just want to share what I have been able to do with others, in hopes that they too can benefit from these little things that blessed our family so much.

Over the last 20+ years raising grandkids, and now a great grandson, the results have been nothing short of amazing. My granddaughters have all graduated high school with one Valedictorian. Two went on to PIMA Medical Institute. One is now a dental technician and the other a medical assistant and working on her RN. Another granddaughter is currently attending the University of New Mexico. My grandson was recently accepted to the prestigious Albuquerque Academy high school and is maintaining a 4.0 GPA. My great grandson, Izayah, is leading his classes in every measured category, and his teachers have referred him for "gifted" testing. The time invested with them has been well worth it for them and for me.
